are any of your fellow secondary school/highschool classmates dead?

Yes many are since it was decades ago.

There was a guy in my high school who was always a prck, and a bully. I looked him up 20 yrs later and he'd become an oil-company guy, buying up mineral rights from farmers in western Canada. Well, he'd assure them that they'd never know the oil company was there, and it wouldn't change a thing. So they'd sign up, and then bulldozers would show up to bulldoze them off their property which had been signed a way much more completely, in the fine print of the contract. So this one farmer went to the sheriff, the lawyer, the police chief, and they all said, sorry Doug, he got you. So the farmer went back and when they showed up again, shot my old classmate dead! Which is unheard of in Canada, really, in that kind of context. He then turned himself in to the law, immediately, which is more in keeping with that culture. So the one prck is dead, the honest farmer is in jail, and that's that.

'05. so far one suicide. hung himself on the fan.

At age 82, as many of them are dead as alive.
